Thank you for the nice comment left at my blog, I am indeed blessed to have a friend like Barb, she is the one who encouraged me to blog. I've read everything from or by Corrie ten Boom that I could get my hands on. There is even some old recordings I have heard of her speaking which is very fun, she had a great sense of humor. She was an amazing woman. I am now encouraged to reread her writing.

Loved Anne Frank and visited her hiding place, my dad is Dutch, his uncles hid Jewish children during the war and had to go into hiding themselves. Love reading about the courageous things people do when called upon! Blogging once a week seems like enough to me, I can barely get words on the page, life intervenes, right?

The Hiding Place is one of my favorites! If you liked that one I just finished one that you might like - Lydia Minatoya's The Strangeness of Beauty. It has nothing to do with the holocaust, but it's just a beautiful book about women.

Penny, you're welcome to borrow my "Hinds Feet in High Places". Know you'd love it.
Sure is humbling to find a fire hydrant stepping out in front of you. Bummer!!
Love the chicken from Peru. How very blessed you are! Enjoy. A chick for one classy chick.

Yes, it has been a week indeed. Misbehaving children, long car rides, and a sewing machine on the fritz. But your reading choice is quite excellent and sure to pep you up! I think I'll go for a good read myself...
